Package: vim-gtk Version: 2:8.0.1401-2 Severity: important Hello!
I noticed a bug in vim, while attempting to use it in a text console. The steps to reproduce the bug are: 0) use a (Debian testing) system (with systemd as PID 1 and) without graphical display managers (no lightdm or other similar DMs) 1) log in on a text console (tty1) 2) open a graphical X session $ startx 3) use the X session and then exit 4) when you come back to the text console (tty1), do *not* log out 5) on the text console (tty1), start vim $ vim -u NONE 6) the text editor starts normally, with its splash screen 7) issue the command :set mouse=a 8) watch Vim dying with a segfault: Vim: Caught deadly signal SEGV Vim: Finished. Segmentation fault Please note that this does not happen on a new text console, after logging in, without starting an X session. But, if I do so, mouse support does not seem to work properly, even though gpm is running and lets me use the mouse to perform copy/paste operations in the text console... Is there anything I am misunderstanding? Please investigate/fix this bug and/or forward my bug report upstream, as appropriate. Thanks for your time!
